Animal Control

DUE to COVID19 restrictions, we are unable to accept any animal license application.

Every dog and cat six months old or older must be licensed and must wear the license tag on its collar or harness.

For more information about obtaining a pet license, please call the Police Department Front Desk 425-670-5600.

Residents who find a lost or abandoned animal or have an animal to surrender within the city limits of Lynnwood can take it directly to the Everett Animal Shelter, located at 333 Smith Island Road in Everett, or they can call 911 to contact the Lynnwood Police Department’s animal control officer, who may be able to locate a microchip on the animal and return it to the owner.

Lynnwood residents who lose a pet can retrieve it from the shelter, be mindful that a redemption fee will be paid at the shelter.
